That's true. However, I don't believe it's survival instinct to steal jewelry and plasma screens when you're starving.

True, and that's something else entirely. There was footage of people doing this, and they weren't covering their faces or anything - they had no shame.

Maybe it's because our culture is material driven, they've seen and wanted certain things that they couldn't normally have, and all of the sudden, it's within their grasp.

One of the clips was of a child saying "I'm gonna get me some new shoes". The kid was standing in water.

That right there tells you the problems in this country run very deep (no pun intended).
